What’s on Your Pull List? July 15, 2015
Every week, a different Panelteer will give you a rundown of the comics they’re most looking forward to for the week. Floppies, trades and omniboo are all fair game here. This week, Ali tells us what’s on her pull list.
Even though I wasn’t at Comic-Con this weekend, I still feel a bit hungover from all the announcements, extended trailers, leaked teasers, and drunk tweets from the Hyatt bar. I almost wish I had gone this year. But instead I’ll just stare at this gif of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman for a while and pretend I was there.
Anyway. Onto this week’s Pull List!!
Siege #1 by Kieron Gillen and Filipe Andrade (Marvel)
I’ve said before that I’m not at all paying attention to Secret Wars; I’m just basking in the light of all the radiant characters I love being back in comics. And in Siege I get America Chavez AND Abigail Brand AND Leah. They’re joined by Lady Katherine of Bishop, Leonardo Da Vinci, and the Endless Summers Company (dat pun!). All of this on top of Gillen’s crackling dialogue and Andrade’s ethereal pencils. There are so very many of my buttons this book pushes. DO WANT.
Captain Britain and the Mighty Defenders #1 by Al Ewing and Alan Davis (Marvel)
Black Canary #2 by Brendan Fletcher and Annie Wu (DC Comics)
Lumberjanes #16 by Shannon Watters, Noelle Stevenson, and Brooke A. Allen (BOOM Studios)
I mean, OBVIOUSLY.
Hawkeye #22 by Matt Fraction and David Aja (Marvel)
All good things must come to an end. And while I could snark about the scheduling of this issue, I think we’re all thankful for the time we’ve spent suspended in the idea that Fraction and Aja’s run on Hawkeye was still an on-going thing. This run has been nothing short of iconic. While I’m clamouring for resolution, I really don’t want this series to be over. AW, HAWKGUY, NO.
What’s on your Pull List this week, dear readers? And what announcement from SDCC has you the most excited?
